497542 2006-11-08 09:20:00 Ok recently i changed from a cheap nastie ISP, to a larger company ISP and had good speeds and loading etc............just recently my pages dont fininsh loading at all, if i dont go back to that tab, it can be still loading in an hour.

is this a ploy to get us dial uppers onto broadband? or is it a problem with isp, or my pc?

driving me nutty cos pf1 also takes forever to load.:(

I also have problems majorly with Emails not getting thro, even from ones i have got specifically sent via web pages? changed email addys and makes not a jot of difference.........
i am finding it a pain because nothing is progressing how it should be and a refresh doesnt help.

ive cleared cookies, and cache.had a nitemare loading pages and getting passwords and log ins working again........ so i dont wanna go down that track again.:(

ive done system checks lately and makes no diff, and defrag regularly.

its a beetle curse im sure.:p

Are you using the same version of Opera as when you were with KOL? Does it do the same in <cringe> Internet Exploder?

497546 2006-11-08 13:20:00 Just a guess but it might be the DNS settings could need changing to your new ISP's. Remind us what version of Windows you're on. Greg (193)
497547 2006-11-08 18:31:00 I sometimes have this problem on broadband. The way I fix it is stopping the page then reloading it. Always works. :thumbs:

(Or checking my connection/s)

497548 2006-11-08 18:53:00 When u changed ISP's and changed the email addies, did u change the pop and smtp servers as well? Thats if u use OE or Outlook.

Or do u just use webmail Beetle?

It used to take me ages to get to PF1 too, until I blocked the ads with Opera :D

If u havent changed the DNS servers, it looks like theyre

Primary: 202.180.64.9

Secondary: 202.180.64.2

And if u use OE or other (besides webmail), did u change the pop and smtp servers to

For Incoming mail server (POP3): pop3.slingshot.co.nz

For Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.slingshot.co.nz ?

You shouldn't have to have the DNS entered either really.

497550 2006-11-09 03:15:00 Apart from i dont know what a dns is or where i find it . . . . . . . . . . . IE seems to load fine, :xmouth:

and today i dont have lag at the moment . . . . . . . . . . . or whatever the problems are .

i think i did an update on opera since changing ISP's . . . . . . . . but not sure .

:illogical

if i remember anything . . . :p i will let you know .
